I like the color, it stands out among all the black and red Corvettes you see. I do like some of the newer blue colors and the atomic orange also.
Again I ask, why show Verts with the top up?

Here comes all the preferences slamming other colors. I don't mind yellow on a Corvette but on a sedan/SUV no way. I personally love silver especially on sedans/SUVs. With the C6 I just love the 60th Anniversary package which includes the blue diamond/suede interior. Having a stripe down middle sticks out also so i can't really say yellow gathers the most attention.

If I wanted to drive a school bus I would have bought a school bus.

I like the Sunfire Yellow color on a midyear. The brighter yellows they use now do nothing for me.

That doesn’t mean it’s bad, just not my preference.

Almost forgot. Don’t like black wheels on yellow cars either.

Absolutely correct. The OP asked for opinions.

I purchased mine because that's how I met my wife. She was walking out of the club with a yellow dress on. I said to her I like yellow she said thank you. 28 years of marriage 2016 I see the 2008 yellow Vette with 3000, miles so I bought it.

They sold more white in 2017 than any other color.
I couldn't own a yellow Vette in Pa. Looks too much like a Steeler car. I root for the Steeler's, but don't want to be reminded of them every time I go to the garage.

It’s a very polarizing color. Also, for many, resale is a concern (for unknown reasons, it’s a damn toy vehicle) as yellow vehicles tend to be harder to sell— unless someone who appreciates ONLY the finest of goods is on the hunt for a yellow Corvette.

My first Corvette was a Millennium Yellow C5 coupe. I still think it was a very good-looking color.
